Director-level Product Leader specializing in AI, platforms, and B2B SaaS

San Francisco, CA19y exp

“Senior product leader with 15+ years spanning FAANG-scale platforms and early-stage startups, from Skype’s bot framework at 300M MAU to AI-native enterprise products in fintech, banking, and data center operations. Particularly strong in human-centered AI, trust and transparency UX, and turning ambiguous 0-1 opportunities into shipped MVPs that win pilots, awards, and business traction—including a GenAI observability platform that earned a Google Accelerator award and later led to acquisition.”

“Senior product engineering and data architecture leader who has owned end-to-end solutions for enterprise analytics and legal search platforms, including work for Sony Pictures Entertainment and Accenture Legal. Combines executive-level architecture and team leadership with hands-on experimentation in modern AI systems, recently building a multimodal Hugging Face agent that significantly exceeded its benchmark score.”

“ML/NLP practitioner and technical founder who built an AUP risk-scoring model at Bill.com using TF-IDF + SVD features with XGBoost, and previously created automated data-quality guardrails for a Global Equity Risk stacked ML model at Thomson Reuters. Recently built a RAG-based chatbot for PaymentJock’s Home Affordability Probability product using embeddings and a local vector database (FAISS/Chroma), improving answer quality through chunking rather than expensive fine-tuning.”

“Backend/platform engineer with experience at Microsoft, Uber, and Gusto building production AI-agent automation systems in Python (AutoGen) and cloud-native microservices on Kubernetes across AWS/Azure. Has delivered zero-downtime migrations and high-throughput real-time streaming pipelines (Kafka/WebSockets/Redis), and is strong in GitOps/ArgoCD-driven CI/CD with reliable rollouts and rapid rollback.”
